How do I check if my foundation is stable?

You can use the `calculate_safety_factor` tool by providing the foundation dimensions, soil unit weight, and the expected uplift force.

What happens if groundwater is present?

The tool accounts for buoyancy by reducing the effective weight of the foundation and soil when groundwater is present.

Can I calculate anchor requirements?

Yes, use `estimate_anchor_tension` to find the required capacity for mechanical anchors to meet your target safety factor.

This MCP server provides engineering tools to determine the stability of foundations against vertical uplift forces. It accounts for soil friction, surcharge, and buoyancy effects from groundwater. Engineers can use calculate_safety_factor to check current stability, calculate_required_weight to find the necessary mass to reach a target safety margin, and estimate_anchor_tension to determine the capacity needed for mechanical anchors.
